Docker-CE cannot run because of dockered error: "Containerd did not exist sucessfully" Exist status code 2

[x] This is a bug report
[ ] This is a feature request
[x] I searched existing issues before opening this one

Expected behavior

When I run the sudo systemctl start docker then the docker will be start.

Actual behavior

Nothing happen. I have checked with systemctl status docker.service command with the following output.

This problem occurs from Sunday.

I have tried to remove and reinstall based on documentation but I get the same error.

The real problem is that github.com/containerd/server folder does not exist on github.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Output of docker version:

Docker version 18.06.0-ce, build 0ffa825

Output of docker info:

This is not possible because it is not running.

Additional environment details (AWS, VirtualBox, physical, etc.) Fedora 28 workstation: 4.17.9-200.fc28.x86_64

Thanks for reporting; looks like there's a problem initialising a plugin in containerd; the error occurs at this step; https://github.com/containerd/containerd/blob/d64c661f1d51c48782c9cec8fda7604785f93587/server/server.go#L106-L109

result := p.Init(initContext)
if err := initialized.Add(result); err != nil {
    return nil, errors.Wrapf(err, "could not add plugin result to plugin set")
}

Perhaps you can provide a bit more information to narrow things down;

could you check if the full daemon logs provide more details of events leading up to the error? (systemd only shows a limited number of logs if a service fails to start)
You mention "this problem occurs from Sunday"; was this immediately after you updated for Docker 18.06, or did you update before Sunday, and it worked before that?
Was this an upgrade from a previous version of Docker, or a fresh install? If you were running an older version of Docker before this; do you know which version? Also; were both versions installed from the official packages (https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/fedora/) or have you ran packages provided by the Fedora packagers before?
do you have any custom configuration options set for dockerd? (either through the systemd unit file, environment variables, or /etc/docker/daemon.json)?
could you try running the check-config.sh script (can be found here; https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/contrib/check-config.sh), and see if anything stands out?

Daemon logs error (what I found)

Updating

You mention "this problem occurs from Sunday"; was this immediately after you updated for Docker 18.06, or did you update before Sunday, and it worked before that?

When I say it "update" I mean on the sudo dnf update command only. So the previous Docker was a Docker-CE 18.06.x version too. It seems it was docker-ce-18.06.0.ce-3.fc28.x86_64. So this was that docker version when from the problem occured.

I use past tense because I could remove fully the docker-ce, restart computer, reinstall and it works now.

Was this an upgrade from a previous version of Docker, or a fresh install? If you were running an older version of Docker before this; do you know which version? Also; were both versions installed from the official packages (https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/fedora/) or have you ran packages provided by the Fedora packagers before?

It was a fresh Docker-CE install on a fresh Fedora 28 (no upgrade from 27!), if I remember well there was one Docker-CE update (maybe once I see when I run the dnf update command in the past.)

Custom configuration

do you have any custom configuration options set for dockerd? (either through the systemd unit file, environment variables, or /etc/docker/daemon.json)?

No, nothing, I just followed the description from https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/fedora/ when I installed in spring (when Fedora 28 came out)

Script running

could you try running the check-config.sh script (can be found here;

I am so sorry, but I could fix this with full removing:

sudo dnf remove docker-ce
sudo dnf remove docker*
sudo dnf autoremove
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/docker

sudo dnf remove docker*and sudo dnf autoremove were an extra command now this time and those removed some kind of lib folder and some other python3 libraries, container-selinux too. Restart and then following the installation instructions on the official docker site.

Updating history

dnf update history on 29th of July, but I do not see nothing library which is related to docker...

one day,the machine shutdown by accident,then second day,docker didn't work.cannot connect to the docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock.how can i restart docker.socket?docker-ce version:18.09 and virtual evironment(ubuntu 18.04),and i remove docker-ce then reinstall docker cannot solve the problem

This is due to the version of dockerclient being too low. After uninstalling docker, install the new version of dockerclient.

$yum list installed | grep docker $yum -y remove docker-ce.x86_64 $cd /usr/local/bin $sudo rm -rf docker docker-containerd docker-containerd-ctr docker-containerd-shim dockerd docker-proxy docker-runc $rm -rf /var/lib/docker $sudo yum install docker-ce-18.06.3.ce -y

slove the problem.
